Photon etc.

Created in November 2002, by exploiting a new technology based on hyperspectral imaging invented by its president Sébastien Blais-Ouellette, Photon ETC. INC. has devoted itself in developing, manufacturing and selling customized photonic measurement and analysis instruments for many areas such as Astronomy, Aerospace as well as fundamental research laboratories. Aware of the limited market share available in the astronomy field, Photon ETC. INC. has broadened its technology platform to include Life-Sciences focusing on non-invasive diagnostic tests for afflictions such as aged related macular degeneration (AMD) and for detecting blood alcohol content. This young business, which holds an exclusive licence with the California Institute of Technology, is guaranteed a future full of promise thanks to this revolutionary technology.
